SOP-42Q-MES0071 Employee Validation Maintenance

Certificate Maintenance

The next step to configuring Employee Validation is to create the Certificates. Toaccess theCertificates, click on Certificate Maintenance.

The main certificate maintenance page displays:

Certificate List

Figure 27: Certificate List

SOP-5-I-MDS0023-C-MDS Employee Validation WIKI 27.png

Note that in the Certificate list, it is possible to see some unsynchronized certificates, which means that it has at least one process group that is out of date. In the next steps, the user will be able to turn non synchronized certificates into synchronized certificates.

Adding Certificates

To add certificates and associate processes and process groups or part/family to Certificates, click on Add Certificate in the Tasks area.

The Certificate Maintenance screen displays:

Complete the fields:

Certificate Name: The name of the new certificate (required)

Pilgrim Role: this field is used to associate the Certificate to a Pilgrim role. It was created to maintain a list of the ’Roles’ in Pilgrim that require training for EV purposes, linked to the EV certificate associated with that role.

Life Span: # of days the certificate is valid (required)

Grace Period: # of days allowed after expiration (can not be grater than 30);

2. Click on Ok to confirm. The new certificate must display in the Certificate list.

3. Click on the Add Process / Process Group button to define the process (es) and/or groups that are associated to the certificate.

Adding Process/Process Group to the certificate:

Figure 29: Certificate X Process/Process Group

The Certificate X Process / Process Group page displays:

Select the Process Groups check box to add process groups available in the list. Do the same steps to Processes and click on the Add button.

The inserted process/process group is displayed in the Process/Process Group tab.

NOTE: You cannot create a certificate without having at least one process or group assigned.

Figure 30: Certificate Maintenance Process/Process Group Tab

To add Process to the process groups, click on Add Process. The added processes/process groups are displaying highlighted.

a)Creating generic certificates.

If multi-pass device numbers are used in SFDC, then it is recommended to create a generic certificate and assign some process to it. The process does not have to exist in any route. An example would be SFDC Training for the process. The process is not used for any locations or in any route. The process is controlled by Employee Validation and a generic certificate is created for this process.

All employee numbers are associated to this certificate/process. The reason for this is to allow any employee to log into a device number that has one or more EV controlled processes. Without a generic certificate/process, employees would not be able to log into the device number to perform the non-EV controlled processes that are assigned to the multi-pass device number. Employee validation insures that serial numbers that are at a controlled process can only be scanned by employees that have the necessary certification for the controlled process. Without the generic certificate/process, non certified employees will not be able to log into multi-pass device numbers.

b) To Remove 'CERTIFICATE 'Process/Process Group:

Figure 31: Remove Process Group

Click the process/process group to select it and click on Remove Selected button. The removed process/process group displays in dark gray in the list. To Undo Delete 'CERTIFICATE 'Process/Process Group, select it from list and click on Undo button.

c)Adding Part Number/Part Family/Customer Code to the certificates:

Figure 32: Part Number/Part Family/Customer Code Tab

In addition, users can add Part Numbers/Family and Customer Codes to the Certificate. The rules to add, remove and undo remove are the same described for Process and Process Group.

Figure 33: Customer Code

To add customer code, select the item (s) in the list and click on OK.

Figure 34: Part Family

To add part numbers/family, select the item (s) in the list and click on OK.

Editing Certificates

1. To Edit Certificates, select the certificate in the Certificate List and follow the same instructions to Add Certificates: update the mandatory fields and click on OK to commit the change.

Figure 35: Certificate Maintenance

NOTE: Every time the user adds a new Process on the Certificate, the application creates a new instance of that Certificate. All classes created before the Certificate changes will be linked to the old Certificate instance.

See the example:

1- Create Certificate CERT with process "A" and "B";

2- Create a Class for CERT with employee Y and Z;

3- Edit CERT and add the new Process "C";

On this example the employees Thomas and Keith will be trained only on the processes "A" and "B". If the certificate is changed, they need to be trained on "C", therefore another class will need to be created for the same CERT.

Figure 36: Certificate Instances

SILVER STARS are the old instances that are associated to the classes already created.
